If you are ever at the Portland International airport and you need to utilize the short term parking structure I suggest parking on level 7. The view from the top is gorgeous, even on these winter days when the light is dim and the rain comes in slant-ways torrents. The best time to be there is a mid-summer sunset, when it’s mostly clear and Mt Hood is full view. The colors are gorgeous. There is something serene and relaxing about watching the planes land from the east with the mountain reflecting the sunset behind them.
In all honesty there is beauty around us in one form or another pretty much all the time, especially here in Portland. In LA you can’t see stars as a rule. The only constellations that the sky affords are the landing lights of the planes on approach to LAX. Even that on a warm summer night was beauty. I never thought I would miss LA and yet sometimes….
